Clear, bright golden hued, beautiful ivory head above, looking nice.
In the nose: a little piney, a little citrus-y, soft, and lovely. Very pleasantly hoppy.
In the mouth: there it is, just the right hoppitude to dance upon the palate. Nice fruity essences, good and citrus-y. Tasty stuff, and very drinkable. Malt is lean and clean, a bit bready. Tasty stuff, nicely hoppy, easy drinking. Good ol' pale ale. Just the way I like 'em.
This was made with Summit hops but they couldn't call it Summit Pale Ale because that's been taken. So, Apex it is.
The malt is a bit buried by the hops but showcases the bready, caramel, and honey notes. Hops are the star of the show here. A generous amount of Summit hops were used and dry hopped with Mosaics hosp. Big notes of tangerine, grapefruit, tropical fruit, citrus, a touch of pine dominate.
